      Thanks tips.

      My point is if someone did show up at your house gifting you a horse for Christmas it would be appropriate for you to respond with “what am I supposed to do with this?” And someone telling you “it’s a nice gift, be thankful for it” would be an unreasonable response.

      It’s an example that not every gift is thoughtful just because it’s a gift.
